January is here and with it are so many new possibilities that present itself in different fields. Every year brings with it new trends. Some of which catch on while others just stay far behind. As many experts predict travel and culture trends, art is also expected to see certain trends emerging.

It's hard to believe, but 2023 has arrived, and with it, a new year of artwork and creativity is all set to be unleashed. So, what will the most popular trends be in 2023? What fascinating new developments will captivate the art world?

Manya Roongta, co-founder of The Children's Art Museum of India shares with IANSlife six various works of art that are designed to emulate an emotion, concept, or reality.

The parade of painting
Many people argue that painting is the pinnacle of visual art. Slapping paint on a wall or canvas is what this is all about. Painters use a wide variety of hues and brush types to convey their concepts to the viewer. As a visual art form, painting is also very ancient. Prehistoric cave painters depicted hunts on the cave's walls. Paintings gained prominence in ancient Egypt when they were used to decorate pharaohs' tombs with depictions of daily life.

In the period known as the Renaissance, painting rose to prominence as an art form. Artists from all across Europe flocked to Italy to participate in the Renaissance. Masterpieces by Michelangelo, Raphael, and Titian were created during this time period. There was a resurgence of Italian culture throughout northern Europe, particularly in the Netherlands and Belgium. Many different schools of painting-expressionist, classical, surreal, cubist, impressionist, among others - have emerged and flourished throughout history.

The supreme art of sculpting
The sculpture is used in a variety of ways to represent politics, society, history, religion, rituals, and memorial tributes; it is not only an aesthetic art form. As a tactile, imaginative expression that resides in the same location as its viewers, the work changes across time and space. Gazing at a sculpture is far different from observing a flat, painted painting set up on a wall.

Uniquely, a sculpture allows viewers to see through, above, beneath, or right into it. Observers may encircle the lifelike figure to get unique views or acquire new insights. By infiltrating the space of humanity, this symbolic enrichment provides an immersive experience in which one may intellectually engage.

Body Art: The body of wondrous art
First, body art may increase a person's self-awareness, which is the understanding of one's own physical characteristics, emotions, and actions. Human vision and spirit are profoundly affected by body art because it can always capture human nature and embodies the publicity of human nature.

In reality, the body is the most primal and natural form of human expression, and body art is an exterior form of expression that emphasizes human nature. Since body art mirrors the essence of the human body, it allows us to observe the most authentic and fundamental aspects of human civilisation.

The ceramic charisma
Through the process of pottery, clay and other raw materials are shaped into ceramics. The term "ceramic" is derived from the Greek word "keramos," which means "clay." Nearly 5,000 years ago, human societies across the globe began producing ceramic artifacts.

Historically, ceramic artifacts have served both aesthetic and functional objectives. Ceramic as an aesthetic medium flourishes alongside its relevance in several technological areas today. Ceramics are still valued for their traditional aesthetic and practical qualities.

Drawing: a simple yet elegant form of art
Drawing is among the most widely acknowledged kinds of visual art. Using equipment to construct lines on paper or another two-dimensional surface, an artist creates drawings. Pencils, chalk, charcoal, pen and ink, coloured pencils, crayons, pastels, inked brushes, erasers, markers, styluses, and even metals are common drawing implements.

The word "drawing" is a general phrase that may be used in a variety of works whose techniques differ considerably. The perception and concept of a drawing have evolved throughout time, making it difficult to describe. In contrast, the current definition of drawing is the production of lines on a surface by the use of tracing equipment.

The grip of graffiti on modern art
Graffiti art is a revolutionary style of contemporary art. The artists are influenced by modern art styles such as Pop Art, Abstract Expressionism, and Surrealism, which came before Graffiti. Graffiti also enables individuals to express their opinions on significant issues that might influence the community. This kind of communication provides individuals a voice on the topic and enables more people to learn about other perspectives and ideologies. It is a peaceful method of disseminating ideas across the community that will help unite people, hence reducing disagreements.
